(d) Refund of unearned amounts. If the Contractor, after
making a certified request for progress payments, discovers
that a portion or all of such request constitutes a payment for
performance by the Contractor that fails to conform to the
specifications, terms, and conditions of this contract (hereinafter referred to as the “unearned amount”), the Contractor
shall—
(1) Notify the Contracting Officer of such performance
deficiency; and
52.2-198

FEDERAL ACQUISITION REGULATION
(2) Be obligated to pay the Government an amount
(computed by the Contracting Officer in the manner provided
in paragraph (j) of this clause) equal to interest on the
unearned amount from the 8th day after the date of receipt of
the unearned amount until—
(i) The date the Contractor notifies the Contracting
Officer that the performance deficiency has been corrected; or
(ii) The date the Contractor reduces the amount of
any subsequent certified request for progress payments by an
amount equal to the unearned amount.
(e) Retainage. If the Contracting Officer finds that satisfactory progress was achieved during any period for which a
progress payment is to be made, the Contracting Officer shall
authorize payment to be made in full. However, if satisfactory
progress has not been made, the Contracting Officer may
retain a maximum of 10 percent of the amount of the payment
until satisfactory progress is achieved. When the work is substantially complete, the Contracting Officer may retain from
previously withheld funds and future progress payments that
amount the Contracting Officer considers adequate for protection of the Government and shall release to the Contractor all
the remaining withheld funds. Also, on completion and acceptance of each separate building, public work, or other division
of the contract, for which the price is stated separately in the
contract, payment shall be made for the completed work without retention of a percentage.
(f) Title, liability, and reservation of rights. All material
and work covered by progress payments made shall, at the
time of payment, become the sole property of the Government, but this shall not be construed as—
(1) Relieving the Contractor from the sole responsibility for all material and work upon which payments have been
made or the restoration of any damaged work; or
(2) Waiving the right of the Government to require the
fulfillment of all of the terms of the contract.
(g) Reimbursement for bond premiums. In making these
progress payments, the Government shall, upon request, reimburse the Contractor for the amount of premiums paid for performance and payment bonds (including coinsurance and
reinsurance agreements, when applicable) after the Contractor has furnished evidence of full payment to the surety. The
retainage provisions in paragraph (e) of this clause shall not
apply to that portion of progress payments attributable to bond
premiums.
(h) Final payment. The Government shall pay the amount
due the Contractor under this contract after—
(1) Completion and acceptance of all work;
(2) Presentation of a properly executed voucher; and
(3) Presentation of release of all claims against the Government arising by virtue of this contract, other than claims,
in stated amounts, that the Contractor has specifically
excepted from the operation of the release. A release may also
be required of the assignee if the Contractor’s claim to

FAC 2005–15 FEBRUARY 12, 2007

amounts payable under this contract has been assigned under
the Assignment of Claims Act of 1940 (31 U.S.C. 3727 and
41 U.S.C. 15).
(i) Limitation because of undefinitized work. Notwithstanding any provision of this contract, progress payments
shall not exceed 80 percent on work accomplished on
undefinitized contract actions. A “contract action” is any
action resulting in a contract, as defined in FAR Subpart 2.1,
including contract modifications for additional supplies or
services, but not including contract modifications that are
within the scope and under the terms of the contract, such as
contract modifications issued pursuant to the Changes clause,
or funding and other administrative changes.
(j) Interest computation on unearned amounts. In accordance with 31 U.S.C. 3903(c)(1), the amount payable under
paragraph (d)(2) of this clause shall be—
(1) Computed at the rate of average bond equivalent
rates of 91-day Treasury bills auctioned at the most recent auction of such bills prior to the date the Contractor receives the
unearned amount; and
(2) Deducted from the next available payment to the
Contractor.

number of direct labor hours performed.
(3) The hourly rates shall be paid for all labor performed
on the contract that meets the labor qualifications specified in
the contract. Labor hours incurred to perform tasks for which
labor qualifications were specified in the contract will not be
paid to the extent the work is performed by employees that do
not meet the qualifications specified in the contract, unless
specifically authorized by the Contracting Officer.
(4) The hourly rates shall include wages, indirect costs,
general and administrative expense, and profit. Fractional
parts of an hour shall be payable on a prorated basis.
(5) Vouchers may be submitted once each month (or at
more frequent intervals, if approved by the Contracting
Officer), to the Contracting Officer or authorized representative. The Contractor shall substantiate vouchers (including
any subcontractor hours reimbursed at the hourly rate in the

withhold of 5 percent of the amounts due under paragraph (a)
of this clause, but the total amount withheld for the contract
shall not exceed $50,000. The amounts withheld shall be
retained until the Contractor executes and delivers the release
required by paragraph (g) of this clause.
(8) Unless the Schedule prescribes otherwise, the
hourly rates in the Schedule shall not be varied by virtue of the
Contractor having performed work on an overtime basis. If no
overtime rates are provided in the Schedule and overtime
work is approved in advance by the Contracting Officer, overtime rates shall be negotiated. Failure to agree upon these
overtime rates shall be treated as a dispute under the Disputes

(D) Applicable indirect costs.
(2) If the Contractor furnishes its own materials that

be paid for such materials shall not exceed the Contractor's
established catalog or market price, adjusted to reflect the—
(i) Quantities being acquired; and
(ii) Actual cost of any modifications necessary
because of contract requirements.
(3) Except as provided for in paragraph (b)(2) of this
clause, the Government will reimburse the Contractor for
allowable cost of materials provided the Contractor—
(i) Has made payments for materials in accordance
with the terms and conditions of the agreement or invoice; or
(ii) Ordinarily makes these payments within 30 days
of the submission of the Contractor's payment request to the
Government and such payment is in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the agreement or invoice.
(4) Payment for materials is subject to the Allowable
Cost and Payment clause of this contract. The Contracting
Officer will determine allowable costs of materials in accordance with Subpart 31.2 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) in effect on the date of this contract.
(5) The Contractor may include allocable indirect costs
and other direct costs to the extent they are—
(i) Comprised only of costs that are clearly excluded

When unable to take advantage of the benefits, the Contractor
shall promptly notify the Contracting Officer and give the reasons. The Contractor shall give credit to the Government for
cash and trade discounts, rebates, scrap, commissions, and
other amounts that have accrued to the benefit of the Contractor, or would have accrued except for the fault or neglect of
the Contractor. The Contractor shall not deduct from gross
costs the benefits lost without fault or neglect on the part of

(7) Except as provided for in 31.205-26(e) and (f), the
Government will not pay profit or fee to the prime Contractor
on materials.

requires consent under the clause at 52.244-2, Subcontracts,
without obtaining such consent, the Government is not

the required consent. Any reimbursement of subcontract costs
incurred prior to the date the consent was obtained shall be at
the sole discretion of the Government.
(d) Total cost. It is estimated that the total cost to the Government for the performance of this contract shall not exceed
the ceiling price set forth in the Schedule, and the Contractor
agrees to use its best efforts to perform the work specified in
the Schedule and all obligations under this contract within
such ceiling price. If at any time the Contractor has reason to
believe that the hourly rate payments and material costs that
will accrue in performing this contract in the next succeeding
30 days, if added to all other payments and costs previously
accrued, will exceed 85 percent of the ceiling price in the
Schedule, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer
giving a revised estimate of the total price to the Government
for performing this contract with supporting reasons and documentation. If at any time during performing this contract, the
Contractor has reason to believe that the total price to the Government for performing this contract will be substantially
greater or less than the then stated ceiling price, the Contractor
shall so notify the Contracting Officer, giving a revised estimate of the total price for performing this contract, with supporting reasons and documentation. If at any time during
performing this contract, the Government has reason to
believe that the work to be required in performing this contract
will be substantially greater or less than the stated ceiling
price, the Contracting Officer will so advise the Contractor,
giving the then revised estimate of the total amount of effort
to be required under the contract.
(e) Ceiling price. The Government will not be obligated to
pay the Contractor any amount in excess of the ceiling price
in the Schedule, and the Contractor shall not be obligated to
continue performance if to do so would exceed the ceiling
price set forth in the Schedule, unless and until the Contract-

FAC 2005–15 FEBRUARY 12, 2007
SUBPART 52.2—TEXT OF PROVISIONS AND CLAUSES
ing Officer notifies the Contractor in writing that the ceiling
price has been increased and specifies in the notice a revised
ceiling that shall constitute the ceiling price for performance
under this contract. When and to the extent that the ceiling
price set forth in the Schedule has been increased, any hours
expended and material costs incurred by the Contractor in
excess of the ceiling price before the increase shall be allowable to the same extent as if the hours expended and material
costs had been incurred after the increase in the ceiling price.
(f) Audit. At any time before final payment under this contract, the Contracting Officer may request audit of the vouchers and supporting documentation. Each payment previously
made shall be subject to reduction to the extent of amounts, on
preceding vouchers, that are found by the Contracting Officer
or authorized representative not to have been properly payable
and shall also be subject to reduction for overpayments or to
increase for underpayments. Upon receipt and approval of the
voucher designated by the Contractor as the “completion
voucher” and supporting documentation, and upon compliance by the Contractor with all terms of this contract (including, without limitation, terms relating to patents and the terms
of paragraph (g) of this clause), the Government shall
promptly pay any balance due the Contractor. The completion
voucher, and supporting documentation, shall be submitted by
the Contractor as promptly as practicable following completion of the work under this contract, but in no event later than
1 year (or such longer period as the Contracting Officer may
approve in writing) from the date of completion.
(g) Assignment and Release of Claims. The Contractor, and
each assignee under an assignment entered into under this
contract and in effect at the time of final payment under this
contract, shall execute and deliver, at the time of and as a condition precedent to final payment under this contract, a release
discharging the Government, its officers, agents, and employees of and from all liabilities, obligations, and claims arising
out of or under this contract, subject only to the following
exceptions:
(1) Specified claims in stated amounts, or in estimated
amounts if the amounts are not susceptible of exact statement
by the Contractor.
(2) Claims, together with reasonable incidental
expenses, based upon the liabilities of the Contractor to third
parties arising out of performing this contract, that are not
known to the Contractor on the date of the execution of the
release, and of which the Contractor gives notice in writing to
the Contracting Officer not more than 6 years after the date of
the release or the date of any notice to the Contractor that the
Government is prepared to make final payment, whichever is
earlier.
(3) Claims for reimbursement of costs (other than
expenses of the Contractor by reason of its indemnification of
the Government against patent liability), including reasonable

52.232-8
incidental expenses, incurred by the Contractor under the
terms of this contract relating to patents.
(h) Interim payments on contracts for other than services.
(1) Interim payments made prior to the final payment under
the contract are contract financing payments. Contract financing payments are not subject to the interest penalty provisions
of the Prompt Payment Act.
(2) The designated payment office will make interim
payments for contract financing on the _________ [Contracting Officer insert day as prescribed by agency head; if not prescribed, insert “30th”] day after the designated billing office
receives a proper payment request. In the event that the Government requires an audit or other review of a specific payment request to ensure compliance with the terms and
conditions of the contract, the designated payment office is
not compelled to make payment by the specified due date.
(i) Interim payments on contracts for services. For interim
payments made prior to the final payment under this contract,
the Government will make payment in accordance with the
Prompt Payment Act (31 U.S.C. 3903) and prompt payment
regulations at 5 CFR part 1315.
(End of clause)

(j) The terms of this clause that govern reimbursement for
materials furnished are considered to have been deleted.

52.232-8 Discounts for Prompt Payment.
As prescribed in 32.111(b)(1), insert the following clause:
DISCOUNTS FOR PROMPT PAYMENT (FEB 2002)
(a) Discounts for prompt payment will not be considered
in the evaluation of offers. However, any offered discount will
form a part of the award, and will be taken if payment is made
within the discount period indicated in the offer by the offeror.
As an alternative to offering a discount for prompt payment in
conjunction with the offer, offerors awarded contracts may
include discounts for prompt payment on individual invoices.
(b) In connection with any discount offered for prompt
payment, time shall be computed from the date of the invoice.
If the Contractor has not placed a date on the invoice, the due
date shall be calculated from the date the designated billing
office receives a proper invoice, provided the agency annotates such invoice with the date of receipt at the time of receipt.
For the purpose of computing the discount earned, payment
shall be considered to have been made on the date that appears
on the payment check or, for an electronic funds transfer, the
specified payment date. When the discount date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday when Federal Government
offices are closed and Government business is not expected to

and development contract is contemplated that includes two
or more terms authorizing the temporary withholding of

payable to the Contractor for supplies delivered or services
performed, the total of the amounts withheld at any one time
shall not exceed the greatest amount that may be withheld
under any one clause or Schedule term at that time; provided,
that this limitation shall not apply to—
(a) Withholdings pursuant to any clause relating to wages
or hours of employees;
(b) Withholdings not specifically provided for by this
contract;
(c) The recovery of overpayments; and
(d) Any other withholding for which the Contracting
Officer determines that this limitation is inappropriate.
